Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): The Search‑Enhanced AI Revolution in Chatbots and Enterprise Applications

Генерація з підкріпленням пошуком (RAG): Революція пошуково-розширеного ШІ в чат-ботах та корпоративних застосунках

RAG означає Retrieval-Augmented Generation (генерація з підкріпленням пошуком) — гібридний підхід в ІІ, який поєднує велику мовну модель із пошуковою системою або базою даних для отримання зовнішніх знань з метою надання обґрунтованих, актуальних відповідей. У 2025 році RAG став стратегічною необхідністю для

  • Skynet-1A: 56-Year-Old UK Military Satellite Moved in Orbit—Mystery Deepens
    October 12, 2025, 9:24 AM EDT. UK's first military communications satellite, Skynet-1A, launched in 1969, stopped functioning about 18 months later and has since drifted. New data place it near 105° West, well from its original 40° East geostationary slot, roughly 36,000 km above the Americas. The craft appears to have been moved by unknown actors at some point, with mid-1970s tracking gaps and records lost. A Skynet team would sometimes transfer control to the US during maintenance, raising the possibility that a move occurred during Oakout. The situation raises questions of space debris, potential collisions with operating satellites, and which country could be liable if a maneuver is blamed on a command. The mystery highlights how defunct space assets can still pose risk and scrutiny as orbital data improve.
  • Caltech Builds World's Largest Neutral-Atom Qubit Array: 6,100 Qubits
    October 12, 2025, 9:23 AM EDT. Caltech has built the world's largest neutral-atom qubit array6,100 qubits—pushing quantum computers closer to error correction and full-scale computation. A qubit can occupy a superposition of states, enabling quantum parallelism beyond classical bits. This neutral-atom platform uses precisely controlled atoms to form thousands of high-fidelity qubits, advancing scalable quantum hardware and architectures. The milestone underpins efforts toward practical quantum processors, stronger cryptographic security, and new pathways for solving problems beyond the reach of classical computers.
  • Oracle Could Be the Next Tech Giant to Join the $1 Trillion Club
    October 12, 2025, 9:22 AM EDT. Oracle is emerging as a core player in the AI boom, leveraging its database heritage while expanding into AI workloads with Oracle AI World and agnostic AI services. The company posted a solid quarter: $14.9 billion revenue, 12% year-over-year growth, and a cloud unit at $7.2 billion (up 28%). Net income was $2.9 billion; however, restructuring costs trimmed the bottom line. Importantly, backlog soared 359% YoY to $455 billion, and management highlighted several multibillion-dollar contracts signed in Q1. With a current market cap around $820 billion, Oracle would need about 22% upside to reach $1 trillion—a target investors may view as increasingly plausible given ongoing AI demand.
  • Tech megacaps plunge as Trump tariffs wipe out $770B; Nvidia, Amazon and Tesla lead losses
    October 12, 2025, 9:20 AM EDT. Tech megacaps tumbled after President Trump threatened 100% tariffs on China, triggering a $770 billion wipeout in market cap. Nvidia, Amazon, and Tesla led the losses, each slipping about 5% and pulling the Nasdaq down 3.6% and the S&P 500 2.7%. In extended trading, the trio sank further as export controls on critical software were floated. Nvidia alone shed roughly $229 billion, while Amazon lost about $121 billion and Microsoft around $85 billion as cloud/AI demand jitters roiled markets. OpenAI, a major Nvidia GPU user, continues rapid growth with 800 million weekly users. The tariff jitters also roiled crypto, with Bitcoin sliding and liquidations spiking across the market.
  • IonQ vs. Rigetti: Which Quantum-Computing Stock Has the Edge?
    October 12, 2025, 9:06 AM EDT. Two quantum players pursue different paths: IonQ with trapped-ion qubits and highly coherent, high-fidelity operation versus Rigetti with superconducting qubits and an in-house Fab-1 foundry. IonQ touts up to 99.9% fidelity and broader ecosystem partnerships with major cloud providers, while Rigetti emphasizes manufacturability and faster iteration but faces coherence and scalability hurdles. On the balance sheet, both are unprofitable; IonQ’s cash runway is about 16 quarters, and Rigetti about 13 quarters even after a potential $350 million raise. IonQ has pursued acquisitions (Oxford Ionics) and broader commercial engagement; Rigetti relies more on government/academic contracts. Valuation remains lofty for both, with competition from Google/IBM/Microsoft and customer concentration risk. Overall, IonQ appears to hold a modest commercial lead.
